- "real" oil for steel parts...they'll rust pretty quick after a wet game

- tear your rifle down once a year and check it all out...twice a year if you play indoor with the same rifle (i.e. in fall in prep for indoor...in spring in prep for outdoor)....remember, chrony to be sure of what your rifle is shooting at with 0.20's

- as mentioned...check over each screw/piece before each game to ensure that things are tight.

- clean barrel as needed (best way is to take it out and remove from hopup...but that's more of a pain for some AEGs than others).
